mortality/aging
• most mice died by E13.5, although an occasional fetus survived to E18.5, putatively due to variability in the expression of cre recombinase
• peripheral edema that was often associated with pericardial effusion indicated that lethality was secondary to heart failure

cardiovascular system
• severe defects in the architecture of the brancial arch artery due to impaired remodeling
• variable branching and abnormal regression and remodeling
• only one pulmonary artery originates from the ductus arteriosis and the fate of the second pulmonary artery is not clear
• majority exhibited a proximal aortopulmonary window, in which the proximal aspect of the outflow tract septum failed to form
• the left carotid artery branched either from the right brachiocephalic artery in the most severely affected embryos or directly from the aorta in more mildly affected embryos
• interruption (type B) of the aorta between the left carotid and the left subclavian arteries
• growth was delayed and the cushions were hypoplastic
• cell proliferation is reduced in the cushion mesenchyme, relative to wild-type
• observed in all examined fetuses
• putatively due to a defect in the conotruncal mesenchyme
• hypoplastic semilunar valves
• peripheral edema that was often associated with pericardial effusion

homeostasis/metabolism
• peripheral edema that was often associated with pericardial effusion
• peripheral edema that was often associated with pericardial effusion

craniofacial
• severe defects in the architecture of the brancial arch artery due to impaired remodeling
• variable branching and abnormal regression and remodeling

embryo
• severe defects in the architecture of the brancial arch artery due to impaired remodeling
• variable branching and abnormal regression and remodeling
